Besides that...

It's all a no-brainer: a HOT rhythm section. I've posted umpteen times on GN about the co-ordination among the drums/bass/r guitar...with the pick hand co-ordinated with the foot pedal and the bassist bridging the percussion. If the rhythm section ain't a "rhythm" section...well, whaddya 'spect???

Hope this helps

. . . whether you can dance or not . . . enough drinks and you won't care if you can't dance.

Just a quick partial run through of songs from my iPod . . . that shakes my caboose.

Now if they aren't dancing after this set . . . they are dead.

"You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate
For some reason "My Old School" by Steely Dan was popular. I loved it, which makes it not a dance song by default.
"Midnight Train In Georgia" by Gladys Night and the Pips. (I could have been a Pip. Bad timing is all.....)

Mostly old school/funk, like stuff from Kool and the Gang ("Celebration"?), KC and the Sunshine Band ("Shake Your Booty"), etc. I'm drawing a lot of blanks. :oops:]]> Opinions and Polls rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322072 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322071 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 23:29:25 +0000 Opinions and Polls jwmartin https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322071 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322068 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 23:17:10 +0000 Opinions and Polls Anonymous https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322068 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322051 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 19:55:30 +0000 Opinions and Polls rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/whats-the-key-to-getting-people-to-dance/paged/2/#post-322051
